John 3:28-30 You yourselves give witness that I said, I am not the Christ. What I said was, I am sent before the Christ.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁸ You yourselves give witness that I said, I am not the Christ. What I said was, I am sent before the Christ. ²⁹ He who has the bride is the husband: but the husband's friend, whose place is by his side and whose ears are open to him, is full of joy because of the husband's voice: such is my joy, and it is complete. ³⁰ He has to become greater while I become less.
